Chapter 59 These Players Are Really Getting More and More Tortured
Yesterday's snow seemed to be just an accident.
The morning sun of the next day still brought a hint of autumn warmth.
After leaving the shelter, Jun Lazi looked outside carefully. After finding that it was not as cold as he imagined, he finally breathed a sigh of relief and ran outside happily with his tail wagging.
It was too cold at night.
Its online time had to be changed back.
Except for Chu Guang and Jun Lazi, no one seemed to be in a hurry. Instead, they had some expectations for the coming cold winter.
Especially for players in the south, there are not many opportunities to see heavy snow.
Now in this wasteland, snow foam is floating in the sky before September is over. I think if I wait for another ten days or half a month, I should be able to enjoy the next game.
Passing through the wall of the outpost.
Chu Guang inspected his territory, and at the same time silently thought in his heart, which piece of land should be enclosed next time.
Is it to the north or the south?
This question is worth thinking about.
At this time, when he walked to the door, he found that two little players were busy in front of the north gate, building a door-shaped frame with wood.
Look at this shape...
It looks a bit like the gallows at the entrance of Brown Farm?
"...What are you doing?"
Seeing the administrator, the two players immediately stopped their work and looked over excitedly.
Yaer I want to go to the toilet: "Dear administrator, we are making a gallows!"
Chu Guang: "...Gallows? What's the point of making that thing."
Ward Foot Foot Who Levin: "This is more wasteland! And more punk!"
Yaer I want to go to the toilet: "Yes, and very practical! If anyone violates the laws of the shelter, we will hang him up! Hehe."
Chu Guang: "..."
Okay.
But it's not necessary.
Except for these two idiots, the other players in the shelter look pretty normal. They are either busy doing tasks or busy chopping trees and moving bricks.
The outpost is in the early stages of development. It lacks everything except work, so there is no need to worry about players finding things to do.
It doesn't matter if there are one or two slackers occasionally, just let them be.
The art of management is not about micro-management, but about controlling the general direction. As long as the players are diligent as a whole, it's fine.
Unless someone is offline for a long time, he will probably take care of it. If it is confirmed that he is AFK, he will give the closed beta qualification to others.
As for how the system will take back the helmet, how to distribute it, and whether it will cause any disturbance, it is not his concern.
If it can be done, there must be a reason for it. When there are enough clues, you will know it naturally.
Unfounded "infinite skepticism" has no meaning. Although scientific thinking emphasizes "skepticism includes suspicion of oneself", it also emphasizes that everything must be based on evidence, and don't take conjecture as truth.
So why bother with so many "parallel world" things?
I can't go back.
Walking to the carpenter's hut, Chu Guang counted the equipment on the shelf.
So far, Brother Mosquito has made 15 wooden bows and hundreds of arrows, and his production and processing movements are becoming more and more proficient.
Not only that, Chu Guang found that this guy is really a talent. Not only is his thinking novel, but he can also draw inferences from one example at work.
For example, for this arrow alone, he designed two different arrowheads.
One is to push the arrowhead into a wooden strip with a fixed groove, heat it up and forge it several times. This kind of arrow can be used repeatedly many times until the arrowhead is completely scrapped.
The other is to simply mix rosin and animal fat and stick the rust flakes directly on the arrow shaft.
Although this kind of arrow is disposable and has poor penetration, as long as it can be effectively shot, it can basically leave the rusty arrowhead in the opponent's body, causing continuous damage.
Even if you don't lose your ability to move on the spot, you will most likely die of tetanus or other infections in a few days.
"Mr. Manager? I was just planning to look for you."
Seeing Chu Guang appearing at the door, WC really has a mosquito's eyes lit up, put down the tools in his hand and stood up from the chair.
Chu Guang looked at him and said.
"I'm just here to take a look around. Do you have anything to report to me?"
"I've made the gunpowder you asked me to make before!"
As he said that, Mosquito took out a can of black gunpowder in a glass bottle from the shelf and excitedly handed it to Chu Guang, causing the latter to take a step back and almost kick this guy off the line without permission.
"It's okay. There is no open flame here. It's very safe! Hehe."
Mosquito laughed and continued.
"I made it using the formula I found on the Internet, using 74.6% potassium nitrate. According to this ratio, gunpowder can burn most fully!"
As before, Chu Guang ignored the out-of-game content mentioned by the players in the conversation, took the glass bottle and looked at it carefully, and nodded.
"Well done... Have you tried it?"
"I can experiment with you now! Please follow me!"
As he said that, Mosquito took the manager to the outside of the carpenter's hut and took out a small glass bottle with a volume of about 150ml from his pocket.
It was filled with gunpowder, with a cotton thread inserted into the mouth of the bottle, and an oil seal made of animal fat.
He trotted out for a distance, placed the glass bottle next to a tree, lit the cotton thread with a match, and then ran away.
As the cotton thread burned out, there was a loud thunder-like sound, and the glass bottle exploded violently, shattering the surface of the tree trunk, which fell precariously.
Many players who were cutting down trees nearby were startled by the sound and ran over to watch the fun.
"What the hell?! Bro, it's okay!"
"Did you create T and T?"
"What the hell, you know the smoke. It's obviously black powder. But it's also very strong! Everyone knows the formula, but the raw materials are too difficult to get."
“The boss is awesome!!”
Apparently I heard the praise from other players.
Mosquito looked at the manager beside him excitedly, his face glowing with excitement.
"how?"
Chu Guang's face was also full of surprise.
this……
Is this player too punished?
What does a carpenter want to do if he knows so much?
"...Very good, your performance exceeded my expectations. Although the smoke generated is a bit bigger and the power of the explosion needs to be improved, these are not problems. I will report your credit to the organization and you will receive 500 contribution points reward.”
"In addition, you can try to get out smokeless explosives, such as nitrate, chemical cotton, etc. If you can succeed, the shelter will reward you with 1,000 contribution points, and I will also have new work to hand over. for you."
new job?
The expression on Mosquito's face was momentarily excited.
Does this mean a hidden mission?
In fact, it doesn’t matter if there are no hidden tasks, the reward of 1,000 contribution points is already tempting enough.
Since the alpha0.3 version, the income from contribution points has been reduced. If you complete the daily tasks every day, you will only have a contribution of 160. The contribution from part-time work is also around this number. 1,000 contribution points is already very strong.
Although he is now a citizen, who would mind contributing more? It will only become more and more difficult to obtain this thing in the future.
He remembered that the planner had made a drawing on the official website. In the future, status levels above citizens would be opened, so that more land could be purchased.
Mosquito said happily.
"No problem, dear manager! I'll try it after I get the nitric acid and sulfuric acid out!"
Chu Guang nodded and told him to go back to work first, and then patrolled to the side of the blast furnace.
In order to facilitate transportation, earth kilns for stewing charcoal and cement kilns for burning cement were built nearby, forming a row, almost forming a conventional industrial area.
The fire was running continuously, and the temperature nearby was two degrees higher than other places.
Since "Ward's Athlete's Foot Who Levine" and "Yale I Need to Go to the Toilet Cable" improved the process of indigenous steelmaking, the carbon chamber and the iron-melting chamber were separated, and the iron oxide was reduced through incomplete combustion of carbon monoxide. Instead of using charcoal to reduce it directly.
In this way, the carbon content of the steel waste used as raw material will not increase too much during the smelting process, and there is no need to repeatedly forge, quench, and remove carbon to form steel as before.
Although it is impossible to restore the material to what it was two hundred years ago, the strength of the material in all aspects is definitely much stronger than that of smelting raw ore.
After all, the rare metals originally mixed in the steel will not disappear out of thin air, and they will still remain to some extent.
Experience is always gained bit by bit.
Seeing the passionate players, Chu Guang was filled with emotion.
A few days ago, the outpost's tools had to be imported from the nearby Brown Farm, and they needed to be exchanged for animal pelts.
Nowadays, players have not only learned to use the collected metal scraps to smelt them, but they can even produce the tools they need by themselves.
The woodworking shed addresses an immediate need.
This is the place where miracles can really happen.
"The production efficiency of these earthen kilns is still a little behind. Expanding the facilities requires more building materials and tools. To achieve this, some players must directly or indirectly control the production materials, so that players can take advantage of their initiative. and creativity, giving them a free hand to improve production.”
"Let me think about it... Later versions can classify this area as an industrial zone, clearly stipulate the land use, and allow players who have reached the citizenship level to rent land here, open workshops, and engage in light industrial processing, so as to directly control part of it. means of production.”
"As for heavy industries such as steelmaking and cement, which have huge output, large initial investment, and unstable returns, we can set up a 'public' steel plant and cement plant, and appoint life professionals with outstanding abilities in the form of 'hidden tasks' Serving as the director of the factory and coordinating the planning of production can be regarded as indirectly controlling the production materials.”
"In terms of balance... it can be solved through settings such as taxation and land rent."
"Anyway, the players came up with it themselves."
Chu Guang touched his chin and thought in his heart.
As a qualified planner, the first priority is to understand what the current version requires.
For example, if everyone can't rank ADC, then strengthen ADC. If they all run to become Shooters, then chop them on the head or strengthen the jungle.
The biggest difference between games and reality is that in reality, reforms and policy adjustments have costs.
But when it comes to adjusting the balance in the game, the most people can say is that it's a stupid plan. As long as it's not unplayable, you can do whatever you have to do in the end.
"Master Manager!"
Hearing someone calling him, Chu Guang stopped and looked back, only to see a player carrying a bow and arrow running towards him panting.
"whats the matter?"
"On the north side of the outpost, near the viaduct, two people came, leading a cow with two heads! The one in the head looked familiar, very similar to the people who had been here before!"
Players put their hands on their knees and reported the situation intermittently.
A cow with two heads?
Could it be that businessman from Honghe Town?
So fast?
Chu Guang was slightly surprised, but his face remained calm as he gave instructions to the player.
"Take me there."
"yes!"
